Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “In contrast with envy, which usually occurs between two people and is focused upon another person’s qualities or possessions, jealousy occurs when a third person becomes a threat to a dyad. Jealousy involves the loss or the impending loss of a relationship that one wants to hold onto, a relationship that is vital to personal fulfillment and claimed as one’s own.”
    —Carol S. Becker (b. 1942)

    “Yet now farewell, and farewell life with thee!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
